Bellmont Partners Promotes Briana Gruenewald and Johanna Holub

Super-uni­corn Bri­ana joined the agency near­ly four years ago as an assis­tant account exec­u­tive and has con­tin­u­al­ly sur­prised and delight­ed us along the way with her fiery curios­i­ty and pas­sion for telling inspir­ing sto­ries.

Her inter­est in all things art-relat­ed led her explore her love for graph­ic design, and as if it’s not enough to have a full-time job and bal­ance life-work, she’s also mid­way through earn­ing an M.A. at her hap­py place, Min­neapo­lis Col­lege of Art & Design. Her eye for turn­ing words into art and art into words is remark­able, and she’s killer at rec­om­mend­ing all the best pod­casts.

JOHANNA HOLUB

Johan­na came to Bell­mont Part­ners two years ago after stints at two Seat­tle PR agen­cies and as a com­mu­ni­ty news­pa­per edi­tor at the Roseville Review and is a phe­nom­e­nal writer, project man­ag­er and con­tent cre­ator.

Johan­na is a great exam­ple of how we look at our work through a jour­nal­is­tic lens – to always keep peo­ple at the cen­ter of every sto­ry we tell and every­thing we do. She uti­lizes her jour­nal­is­tic mind­set in every­thing she does, scru­ti­niz­ing strat­e­gy, dig­ging deeply into research, ask­ing tough ques­tions and putting her curi­ous nature to work for every client.

Her pas­sion for the envi­ron­ment sparked Bell­mont Part­ners’ inter­nal Sus­tain­abil­i­ty Ini­tia­tive. Launched less than a year ago, Johan­na has spear­head­ed an ini­tia­tive that has already estab­lished a com­mer­cial organ­ics recy­cling pro­gram in the office, which includ­ed mak­ing a switch to biodegrad­able kitchen sup­plies, a refrig­er­a­tor con­tain­er label­ing sys­tem to cut down on food waste, a patio herb gar­den and ongo­ing edu­ca­tion on sus­tain­abil­i­ty top­ics for her col­leagues.

Con­grats, Bri and Johan­na – we’re so lucky you’re a part of our team!
